FOR SALE IS A STRIKING EARLY 60s SEIKO SKYLINER IN GREAT CONDITION A GORGEOUS SUNKEN DIAL.
CASE: SUPER CLEAN AND SHARP LARGE SOLID STEEL CASE MEASURING A HEALTHY 36.4mm NOT INCLUDING CROWN BY 43mm LUG TO LUG. I LOVE THE ANGULAR AND EDGY DESIGN OF THOSE LUGS WITH THOSE SHARP FACETS. THIS ONE MAINTAINS ALL ITS SHARP LINES AND LOOKS PRETTY DAMN FRESH. CASE-BACK HAS A MILD INDENTATION TO IT BUT DOES NOT DETRACT FROM THE BEAUTY OF THIS GUY.
DIAL: MAYBE ONE OF THE BEST SEIKO DRESS DIALS I'VE SEEN? LOOK AT ALL THAT DETAIL. NICE SUNBURST SILVER BACKDROP WITH A MATTE BRUSHED RING THAT HOUSES THE PROMINENT STEEL MARKERS. THIS DESIGN REALLY CREATES A NICE SENSE OF DEPTH. THE CONDITION IS BEAUTIFUL WITH JUST A MINOR HINT OF TONING TOWARDS THE CENTER OF THE DIAL. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE FONT USED ON THIS ONE AND THAT SUBTLE TOUCH OF BLUE WITH THE "30". NICE CLEAN DAGGER HANDS TIE THE WHOLE THING TOGETHER.
MOVEMENT: THIS GENTLEMAN RUNS ON A 21JEWEL IN-HOUSE SEIKO CAL.6220 MANUAL WINDER. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN, BUT THE WATCH HAS BEEN KEEPING EXCELLENT TIME MONITORED OVER WEEKS OF ON/OFF WEAR
WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A COOL MINIMALIST DARK BROWN LEATHER STRAP WHICH LOOKS SUPER ELEGANT ON THIS GUY. WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS MODEL IS IT COMBINES THE STYLE AND ELEGANCE OF THE EARLY 60s WATCHES IN A PACKAGE THAT WEARS MORE MODERN. YOU JUST CAN'T BEAT 60s SEIKO......OR REALLY SEIKO FROM ANY ERA.
